The notion that the First Amendment has no limitations whatsoever is balderdash. Trey Gowdy More Quotes by Trey Gowdy More Quotes From Trey Gowdy Mr. Cummings and I have spoken twice this morning about our mutual desire to see the Secret Service funded and the agents treated fairly while acknowledging the difficult and important job they have. Trey Gowdy latest-headlines You examine a witness, you cross-examine the witness, you look for corroboration or contradiction, you don’t use anonymous sources and selective leaks and prejudge the outcome.

But for those who are not used to seeing how the way investigations are supposed to be run, this is how they’re supposed to be done. Trey Gowdy politics I think the most troubling part for me is when Director Comey would not assure us that there’s a leak investigation. Trey Gowdy politics I ’m trying to help the public, and Director Comey, kind of narrow down the universe of people who would have had access to that information to then leak it. Trey Gowdy politics Out of the 320 million people in our country, there are n’t that many that would’ve had access to the information. Trey Gowdy politics It’s really hard to cross-examine tweets.

Trey Gowdy latest-headlines While the emails have never been the focus of our investigation, it was necessary to obtain them, and this committee is the first and only one to do so, if anyone wonders why the investigation is not yet complete, the malfeasance and numerous problems identified in this report are Exhibit A, and prove the committee has faced serial delays from day one at the hands of public officials who sought to avoid transparency and accountability. Congressional Democrats spent most of the day on Wednesday playing down the State Department audit. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Secretary Clinton had acted in good conscience and that Secretary Clinton email practices were consistent with what past secretaries of state had done. The audit did not name any other secretaries who had done so. Rep. Elijah E. Cummings of Maryland, ranking Democrat on the House oversight committee, accused Republicans of attacking Secretary Clinton only because Secretary Clinton is the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination. Trey Gowdy politics It’s been very frustrating. Trey Gowdy politics It is deplorable that it took over a year for these records to be produced to our committee.

Trey Gowdy top-news I don't know that she testified that much differently today than the previous times she's testified, their problem is they were so focused on justifying their existence and proving that they had something new, that they fabricated this whole parallel universe where Sid Blumenthal was the central figure in Benghazi. Trey Gowdy politics Help us understand how Sidney Blumenthal had that kind of access to you, Madam Secretary, but the ambassador did not. Trey Gowdy politics Madame Secretary, I understand some people - frankly in both parties - have suggested this investigation is about you. Let me assure you it is not, not a single member of this committee signed up for an investigation into you or your email system. Trey Gowdy top-news
